FAQ

What is the Tensile Stress?

Tensile Stress is the elongation of the material when a stretching force is applied along with the axis of applied force. Tensile Stress is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter for Pressure. Note that the value of Tensile Stress is always positive.

Can the Tensile Stress be negative?

No, the Tensile Stress, measured in Pressure cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Tensile Stress?

Tensile Stress is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter[N/mm²] for Pressure. Pascal[N/mm²], Kilopascal[N/mm²], Bar[N/mm²] are the few other units in which Tensile Stress can be measured.
